Senator Ahmed Wadada Aliyu Returns to APC After Winning Senate Seat on SDP Platform
By Joseph Iyaji | Akahi News
In a significant political development, Senator Ahmed Wadada Aliyu, representing the good people of Nasarawa State and serving as the Chairman of the Senate Committee on Public Accounts, has officially rejoined the All Progressives Congress (APC).
The lawmaker, who left the APC in 2022, contested and won the 2023 senatorial election on the platform of the Social Democratic Party (SDP). His return to the ruling party signals a renewed alignment with APC’s political direction at both the state and national levels.
A Political Homecoming
Senator Wadada’s decision to return to the APC has generated political conversations across Nasarawa State. Political observers believe his move could further strengthen the party’s presence in the region ahead of future elections.
Party loyalists and supporters have welcomed the Senator’s return, describing him as a seasoned politician whose influence and experience would be critical to APC’s consolidation in Nasarawa State.
From SDP Victory Back to APC
Despite his departure in 2022, Senator Wadada’s successful election campaign under the SDP banner demonstrated his political weight and grassroots support base. However, with his official return, analysts suggest the APC may now benefit from his popularity and legislative experience.
The Senator has yet to give detailed reasons for his return, but party insiders hint at reconciliatory moves within the APC leadership to bring back key figures who left the party before the 2023 polls.
